Dearest Dad, always in my thoughts but especially now as the summer ends and Autumn begins, and still the sun continues to shine making the winter hopefully feel shorter. You would have loved the weather we have been having through September, and I am sure would have been on the golf course regularly. Ryan is in his last year at college and my thoughts of him not being at home this time next year grip me with dread and often reduce me to tears. Selfishly I dont want any of them to grow up, and I remember so well the battles we had together when Mum would be stuck in the middle of us both! You not wanting to let go and me wanting to spread my wings, well now I know so well how you felt Dad. Look over me and help me say the right things, love Louise xxxx
